Everything marked Available now works in v0.9.4.181 and you can prove it yourself in the free trial — 5 exports, no time limit, nothing disabled.

Export formats — all in one license

No format is an upsell. When land in v1.0, existing customers get them as a free update.

Format	Status	Best for
GLB (.glb)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	The web standard. One binary file carrying geometry, materials and scene — drop it into any viewer.
glTF (.gltf + .bin)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	The readable variant. JSON scene plus a binary buffer — easy to inspect, edit and pipe through tooling.
HTML viewer (.html)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	A whole 3D page in one file. E-mail it to a client; it opens in any browser, no server, no plugin.
STL (.stl)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	3D printing and inspection. Binary STL, read by every slicer and mesh tool on the planet.
OBJ (.obj + .mtl)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	The classic mesh interchange, with a material file alongside. Read by almost every DCC tool.
PLY (.ply)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	Mesh with per-vertex colour. The language of scanning, metrology and point-cloud tools.
3MF (.3mf)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	The modern replacement for STL. Carries colour and — unlike STL — records its unit, so nothing imports at the wrong scale.
USDZ (.usdz)	v1.1 Planned — free update	Apple AR Quick Look. Tap a link on iPhone or iPad and place the real part on your desk.
FBX (.fbx)	v0.9.4.181 Available now	For game engines. Straight import into Unity and Unreal for interactive and real-time work.

Batch conversion

Point Batch Export at an input folder and an output folder. It walks every.sldprt and .sldasm underneath and writes one file per model in the format you pick.

Your open documents are protected: the batch never closes or saves a file you had open.
A per-file log tells you exactly what converted, what was skipped and why.
Included in the base license — not a separate tier, not an add-on.

Fidelity

Appearance hierarchy

Assembly component overrides → face → body → part, resolved exactly the way SOLIDWORKS displays them.

Metal detection

Appearances and engineering materials (“AISI 304”, brushed steel…) map to metallic PBR with sensible roughness.

Correct color

sRGB → linear conversion so colors match, transparency via alpha blend, double-sided surface bodies.

Geometry & size

True instancing for assemblies — one mesh, N nodes — plus per-material primitives, so no draw-call explosion.
Fine/standard tessellation, welded vertices, CCW-corrected winding, smooth normals.
Center-at-origin option and part metadata (asset.extras) for automatic labeling in web viewers.

Licensing that respects you

One machine per license; moving to a new computer is self-service from your account page.
Reinstalling SOLIDWORKS or GLB Expert re-activates automatically — no wasted seats, no support tickets.
Works offline for 30 days between silent checks, with a friendly reminder after 7. Air-gapped machines use offline activation.
